So i was finally sized at VS the other day and they called me a 34ddd...holy crap...though i feel im not that big im still shocked..also retried all of my swimming suits and almost none of them fit which im pretty bummed about..i. worried ill have trouble finding any new ones to fit me now! Buying big bras is already SO much harder than i thought it would be. I also had my first moment at the gym today looking in the mirror while working out when i thought"damn my boobs are so huge its almost gross. Def hope i dont feel like that again

Keep trying different brands. I went to Fredericks recently, and their bras fit me really well! The underwire goes further back and gives more lift and support than any of the bras I have tried at VS. And I think I have tried every style they have!

I know this was a year ago since you posted but I felt this way after my breast aug. I was 26 when I got them now Im 40 and I WISH i had just had the removed or downsized while I could. I was in denial for a ling time I never thought I would get old!!!! Haha. These only get saggier with time. If you have kids they will probably go to G or H cups then deflate back down to DD. Then there is a bit of sag. In a long winded way I am saying if you feel regret or like you may want to downsize or explant do it now while your skin will still contract. 14 years later I am faced with an explant and a lift. There is nothing wrong with my boobs no complications my husband loves them they just take over my frame. I am so self conscious of them and I do everything to cover them up so ppl dont stare at my chest. It is like my boobs are wearing me not the other way around. Best of luck to you

Had my 12 week follow up today. Not alot to to report. I had recently noticed a small lump around my right breast nipple line maybe the size of a marble. Had my doc check it out today he believes it's maybe A little cyst that could have been there before or could be from inflammation/irritation from surgery. We are going to follow up in 3 months again and then possibly do an ultrasound to make sure it's a definitely a cyst. I'm also noticing the skin lifting a bit still between my breasts though it does seem a little better, he is not concerned and believes it will continue to resolve. It probably just bothers me because I know it's there. I have done a small amount of bra shopping and have fit into a c and d depending on the place. Continue to work out and gain more and more strength back. Overall happy with the size sometimes I do think I'd like some bigger more fake looking boobs but ultimately I know I wouldnt and I'm happy. Definitely wish the scars would progress faster, I find myself very self conscious of them but it takes time i know!!

I think you look great! Scars take a long time to heal and fade. Do your research and find what will work best for you. I'm starting to feel the ups and downs of this procedure too, but then I look at my before photos and realize how much I like my "after" photos way more!

Today is 8 weeks..don't personally notice much progress visually but they feel softer. Working out upper body is getting easier . Not a ton to report otherwise.
